Chicago White Sox at Los Angeles Dodgers

When looking at one game, I typically will pick the biggest mismatch and look to correlate multiple plays on the game. 

The Dodgers come into this game on a bad stretch going 3-7 last 10 and just 8-12 over their last 20. But if you look at their recent home games they are 14-4 in their last 18. They are 20-10 overall at home, while just 17-19 on the road.  They are also 28-18 vs. right-handed pitchers vs. 9-11 against left-handers.

The White Sox have hit the skids on offense again and they have significant home/road splits (.252/.310/.402 BA/OBA/SLG vs. .221/.281/.371). 

The Dodgers are 3rd in runs per game at home F5 at 3.43, and 5th overall at 3.05. Knowing the Dodgers offense is stronger at home, I will look at their better hitters at the top of the lineup for total bases props. Freddie Freeman has great splits at home vs. right-handed pitchers with 2.32 total bases per game. Mookie Betts and Will Smith also have very strong total base per game numbers at home vs. right-handed pitching with 2.56 and 2.65 respectively. 

Lance Lynn has been one of the worst pitchers in baseball with a 6.72 ERA, 1.56 WHIP in 72.1 innings (13 starts). His splits vs. left-handed hitters are significant as he is allowing a .362 average against them vs. .214 against right-handed hitters. But if you really dig into his splits against left-handed hitters, he is getting destroyed with a 3.5 HR/9, 7.50 FIP, and 2.06 WHIP

Tony Gonsolin has seen his numbers drop off from 2022, where he had a 0.87 WHIP, 2.4 BB/9, 8.2 K/9 and in 2023 he is at 0.98 WHIP, 3.5 BB/9, and 6.6 K/9.  Even with the drop off, I am going all in on the Dodgers bats in this spot for tonight's game.
